"Are you questioning my patriotism?!?!?!?!??!?!"

That is usually the statement from a Democrat Senator/Congressman or an Anti-war advocate when they are caught cheering for America's defeat in the GWOT. It is so petty and disgusting how every loss we suffer as a Nation, they celebrate for being "right about it" in their minds.


Wanna know something?

YOU ARE G0DD@MN RIGHT I AM QUESTIONING YER PATRIOTISM!!!!

You may have defined Patriotism as patriotism (meaning that to be patriotic, you have to disagree with a Republican); however, I still believe in Patriotism the Old-School way. Patriotism is standing for your Country. Sacrificing your comfort, your livelihood... some part of you, towards the betterment of this Nation. patriotism is something you claim when trying to shut someone up who caught you being a defeatist (and, yes, for those of you who need it explained, the capital "P"atriotism is the real thing, the lower case "p"atriotism is Hillary Clinton's definition).


What might have gotten me so riled, you may ask? Things have been building up for a while. Endless news-clips of said Senators, et al., then I hear Cindy Sheehan speak the words "Freedom Fighters" to describe the terrorists that are killing people in Iraq (one of whom was her son, and no, I will not retract that for being a cheap shot... she put herself in the spotlight, and once she turned things political, she lost all rights to privacy and respect), and then this:


ANTI-WAR PROTESTERS TARGET WOUNDED AT ARMY HOSPITAL
Wed Aug 2005 24 21:20:05 ET

Anti-war protestors besieged wounded and disabled soldiers at Walter Reed Hospital in Washington, D.C, a new web report will claim!

CNSNews.com is planning to run an expose on Thursday featuring interviews with both protestors and veterans, as well as shots of protest signs with slogans like “Maimed for a Lie.”

The conservative outlet will post video evidence of the wounded veterans being taunted by protesters, the DRUDGE REPORT has learned.


Ya know... the funny thing about these damn peaceniks, is that they call those of us who support the War and the troops Nazis and such. They think that we are un-patriotic ('cause we are!! We are Patriotic, Mensa! See above). Well, I seem to remember reading about similar wording about the progress of the war, the quagmire, how we should just leave, how we brought this on ourselves.

Except, I am not talking about today. I am talking about the Appeasers of World War II, who used the EXACT SAME RETHORIC back then. Only, back then, Americans recognized it for what it was... sedition and generally UN-patriotic behaviour (there's that damn UN again...).

I was watching an old movie the other day. It was Cary Grant day on one of the TV stations. It was Destination Tokyo (which had followed the obligatory Operation Petticoat). At one point, an unexploded piece of Japanese ordnance ( <--man that spelling looks weird... but it's right) gets lodged into the upper deck of the sub. They get it out, and Grant's character shows it to the crew:

"See that stamp there? Made in the USA. You can thank the Appeasers for that."

Then there's this little gem over at LGF (H/T to Tim at 4RWWS).

Wow. Hollywood ACTUALLY calling these people to the mat for their beliefs and actions. That is definitely something that you will not see these days.

Ugh... I used to be a much more mellow person. Back when I used to teach... Martial Arts. Funny how that works.

Enough of the angry! Today (I need to get to bed, yikes!) is Tiny's B-day! Our li'l Tank is now One year old! w00t! Posting of happy children soon to follow.
